  @LloydsBank customer helpline 0345 030 6270 saying wait time at 102 minutes. Absolutely unacceptably poor customer service. Company credit card about to get moved, you are losing business guaranteed!

  @LloydsBank Hi I have a general enquiry which your chatline wouldn't help me with. They told me to ring. I don't want to. Can I message you?

  @LloydsBank Why have you limited my access to my account, I went to tesco to buy food and was declined because I have spent to much today. Are you kidding me, its my money and I want to spend it when I want.

  Here's something you should do if you have a @BankofScotland @LloydsBank @HalifaxBank account/card... Ask them Immediately to provide evidence that they haven't shown your transaction information to anyone else. I've queried it and receiving HORRENDOUS customer service. Beware!

  @LloydsBank No error. Internet is superfast. It's 2 card payments. Both circle of death

  @dwaynepipe4eva @LloydsBank I had a similar problem recently with Halifax (also part of LBG) not letting me pay for a car. Going to swap away because their alleged anti-fraud checks have been progressively getting more invasive, unnecessary, and likely to block payments over the last few years

  Huh, just got a signal from 1 of my terminals: @Citi upgraded 2 stocks & is bullish on European banks. They know something... Worth a look. 1. @LloydsBank on "Buy" 2. @DeutscheBank on Neutral/High Risk. Just a few days ago, European energy stocks were sliding down on my radar.

  @LloydsBank 20 times I tried to open the account your online system said there was a technical error. I was told by your staff that they cannot open these accounts on the phone and it is only possible online. How can I open one if your online doesn’t work?

  LLOYDS APP SHAMBLES @LloydsBank managed to turn online banking into a raffle where nearly half a million customers got a peek at someone else’s finances. Open the app to check your balance, leave with a stranger’s transactions, account details and national insurance number. Just the sort of premium service that really says trusted high street institution. The bank says an overnight software defect caused the chaos, which is a way of admitting someone fiddled with the wiring and half the country briefly thought their money had gone on a car they never bought. Customers were left panicked, confused and wondering whether they’d been hacked. Lloyds responded with goodwill payments averaging about £38 each, which apparently is now the going rate for accidental identity.. This is the magic of modern banking. Total convenience right up until your app starts freelancing as someone else’s wallet. The regulators are now circling, the bank is very sorry, and the rest of us are once again being asked to trust the same people who cannot update software without turning basic banking into a national farce.

  @LloydsBank 4. ... the one who has to give in. Because you, MY BANK, never supports its customers. I've been a customer since 1988 yet you do not give a damn. For you the payee is ALWAYS RIGHT EVEN IF THEY ARE THE CRIMINAL. WHAT IS THE POINT OF YOU? YOU ARE FAILING TO BE A BANK.
